    The other tire is the stock tire. I got a full size to match my tires. I keep a plug kit in my car. And if I get two flats on the same offroad trip, Im usually with other tacomas and I could always borrow a spare. I got my rear bumper. Its awesome...

    Dood it's simple you just need to go to a junkyard, the place I went to pulled the springs from the truck for $75 for the pair. Cut them down, an mount them in and I bought new spring axle bolts for $10.. So the whole mod cost me under a Hun. You just need an afternoon an a place you won't piss your neighbors off to much with noise from cutting the leafs :)

    Speaking of full size spares... Anybody have a 35x12.5 r18 laying around? Trying to find a used one so i dont have to buy a brand new tire just to mount it to a spare wheel.

    I have some spare parts taking up garage space, anybody need/want any of this stuff?:
    - stock leafpacks + procomp aal
    - procomp 3 inch rear blocks
    - stock front shocks/springs w/ procomp spacer
    - Westin chrome sidesteps (think they fit double cab and extended cab)
    - 17" chrome Moto Metal 956 (set of 4)

    let me know if you want some pics.

    Alex NOOOOOOOOO "Just say no to drugs...I mean blocks" If you wheel with blocks that = no fun! Seriously though blocks and you're type of wheeling aren't gonna work. I'll get rid of my leafs if I can get a group buy on some Kings and some All Pro leafs.

    Yeah, what Dave said. Blocks aren't great for any type of off-road activity. Visually they'd probably level your truck out, but i doubt you'd be thrilled with the drivability.

    I'm out of town that week, not sure if I'll be back by then. I'll see if I can make the next La Grange trip though.

    Hello All,

    I received an e-mail from a friend that just informed me that the 4-Wheel Drive Park at Hollister Hills (Upper Ranch) is CLOSED from March 13th - 16th for a private event and will not be open to the public. To verify this I called the Rangers Station at HH and received confirmation today (3/2/14). Ranger Station: 1 (831) 637-3874.

    So at this time we either need to decide on another going to a different off-road park or select some trail(s) to explore. Or as Glen suggested move the date back a week back to Saturday March 22nd...

    Suggestions / Comments?
